It would be potassium chloride or kcl
Answer: The standard state refers to 1 atm and
.
Explanation:
It is known that a chemical/substance can either be present in a solid, liquid or gaseous state.
So, when the phase of a substance like solid, liquid or gas is present at 1 atmosphere pressure and at a temperature of
then it known as standard state of substance.
Thus, we can conclude that standard state refers to 1 atm and
.
For this problem, we use the Beer Lambert's Law. Its usual equation is:
A = ∈LC
where
A is the absorbance
∈ is the molar absorptivity
L is the path length
C is the concentration of the sample solution
As you notice, we only have to find the absorbance. But since we are not given with the molar absorptivity, we will have to use the modified equation that relates % transmittance to absorbance:
A = 2 - log(%T)
A = 2 - log(27.3)
A = 0.5638
If theres a mixture of components we can calculate the mole fraction
mole fraction can be calculated as follows
mole fraction of component =

number of moles of ethanol - 3.00 mol
total number of moles in mixture - 3.00 + 5.00 = 8.00 mol
mole fraction of ethanol =

mole fraction of ethanol is 0.375
